Abstract: Fuzzy inference plays a significant role in fuzzy control, artificial intelligence, affective computing, image processing, complex system and so on. The triple I method is one of the most reasonable fuzzy inference methods, which has been highly recognized at home and abroad. On the basis of triple I method with fully implicational inference idea, three identical implication operators were evolved into different implication operators. Then the triple I method is generalized to the differently implicational universal triple I method of (1, 2, 2) type (the universal triple I method for short) by Yiming Tang. First of all, we provide the relevant solutions of the universal triple I method. It is then found that the Compositional Rule of Inference (CRI) method is a special case of the universal triple I method. In addition, we analyze the response functions of fuzzy systems constructed by the universal triple I method, and it is observed that 190 fuzzy systems via the universal triple I method are practicable. Finally, the universal triple I method has been further developed. All in all, this report introduces current research achievements in the universal triple I method in the past 10 years, incorporating its source, theory, new development and its application in affective computing.
